Conclusion Meanings:
'Exonerated': or 'Within NYPD Guidelines' - the alleged conduct occurred but did not violate the NYPD's own rules, which often give officers significant discretion.
'Unsubstantiated': or 'Unable to Determine' - CCRB has fully investigated but could not affirmatively conclude both that the conduct occurred and that it broke the rules.

Description: On June 2, 2011 Plaintiff Freddie Charles was exiting a bodega near E 167th St and Clay Ave in the Bronx when he was shoved from behind by one of the defendant officers. Plaintiff was then immediately put in handcuffs that were excessively tight and transported to the precinct. No officers responded to his requests to loosen the handcuffs. Defendant officers, including officer Maria Brito, then falsified reports of disorderly conduct, obstruction of governmental administration and resisting arrest which the DA declined to prosecute. Plaintiff was held in custody for over 30 hours.
